Kirovets is a brand of tractor. This was fun to do and looks nice for such a small picture.
Good for beginners who want to try their hand at not using Xs.

I can't stand it any more. I've seen about 7,382 comments about not using Xs and I don't understand. Even if you don't actively put Xs in, as soon as you've filled up all the correct black boxes the Xs are automatically put in. If that's all it means, it doesn't seem worth commenting on.

You can turn that off. Uncheck "Fill in the solved lines/columns with crosses" and uncheck "Switch on crossing out numbers automatically".

It's harder than normal, so yes, it is worth mentioning.
It would be *even* harder without the automatic Xs, which I haven't tried yet.
jfallen, thanks for telling us how.
It's just different levels of challenging yourself.

It's all about critical thinking skills and how to exercise them. Even if a puzzle is "easy" you can find ways to challenge yourself and encourage others to do so.

Or you enjoy the ease of these puzzles, when you want to keep your fingers busy while watching a movie or listening to an audiobook. ;D
It's interesting to see the different ways that people like to challenge themselves. I have aphantasia and there are few graphic-type puzzles I can process well enough to enjoy, but the simple math of nongrams works in my brain. This site is basically a fidget toy for me. I never even look at how long they take.
When I want to work my mind and focus my attention, I'll do a Zebra Puzzle or play a PnC adventure game. Probably the product of an brain that operates almost entirely on language.

I had to look aphantasia up only to find that I didn't realize people actually see pictures in their head.

I've never doubted that not using Xs added to the challenge, but it's about logical, not critical, thinking skills.

I see what you mean - perhaps you should explain that you turn off automatic Xs?
